Chapter 367 Asher Cleaning Up the Mess
Millie was certain that Timothy would end up buying Hargreaves Group, which would ensure there were no more issues with the special medication research.
She couldn’t even look at Jennifer without a sense of distaste.
Jennifer remained silent after hearing this.
Honestly, her engagement with Timothy was already on its last legs, so she’d known the marriage would be called off eventually. The news didn’t bother her much.
But Asher, standing nearby, couldn’t shake the discomfort.
He stepped forward, his voice tight as he spoke to Millie, “We’ll make sure to give the Clark family an explanation for everything. Please, just give us a chance.”
“Do you think you’ve earned that chance?” Millie’s tone was sharp. “You cause problems, and now you come begging for mercy. You really know how to make a mess,”
Still furious, Millic turned on her heel and walked off, not wanting to waste another second on the Hargreaves family. Every moment spent with them just fueled her anger.

“If it hadn’t been for Angelina forcing Timothy into this engagement with Jennifer, none of this would have happened,” Millic thought bitterly.
They should have just bought Hargreaves Group outright from the start. The trouble they were in now could have been avoided.
Once Millie had left, the police station fell into a tense silence.
Asher’s gaze locked on Sarah. “Is this really what you wanted? Is this what you were hoping for?”
Sarah feigned innocence, shaking her head. “Asher, it’s not like I wanted this to happen. I tried explaining everything to her, but she wouldn’t listen. How is that my fault?”
Inside, Sarah felt a twisted sense of satisfaction.
If this situation could convince the Clark family to push Jennifer aside, she would be thrilled.
Why should that bitch Jennifer get to live such a good life?
Asher didn’t want to waste any more time talking to Sarah. He was already beyond frustrated. Without another word, he stormed out of the police station.
Jennifer, though, shot Sarah a cold look. “Do you really think you can manipulate both the Hargreaves family and the Clark family into giving you what you want? You have no idea who you’re messing with.”

She wasn’t wrong. No matter how much Sarah had been a part of the Hargreaves family over the years, her betrayal wouldn’t go unnoticed.

Jennifer raised an eyebrow, unbothered. “How is that my fault?”
“Don’t play dumb. I know you have the Clark family backing you, so you feel untouchable. But I’m just a lonely orphan with no one on my side. Of course I have to think about my future.”
Sarah had made up her mind. She was going to force both the Hargreaves and Clark families to compromise and give her something in exchange for her silence.
There was no way she was going to drop the lawsuit.
She had nothing to lose now, and if she could drag both families. down, so be it.
